Design and Permitting of the upgrade fourteen (14) underground diesel & No. 6 fuel oil storage tanks with a combined tankage of over 540,000 gallons for a Major Oil Storage Facility. Project includes subsurface investigation, installation of soil borings, groundwater monitoring wells, non-destructive ultrasonic and volumetric tightness testing of tanks, tank design rehabilitation including tank leak detection and monitoring systems, lining systems, NYSDEC permitting, preparation of SPCC plan, soils and groundwater sampling and analysis, preparation of engineering drawings and design and construction management services for facility upgrade. GEA also prepared engineering designs for Bioremediation of petroleum contaminated soils.

GEA designed and installed seven (7) groundwater monitoring wells for the NYCDOC to successfully meet NYSDEC consent order requirements. Staff shown here monitoring and sampling the wells using a state-of-the-art automatic well sampling system employing dedicated bladder pumps and portable air compressor.
